...unless, of course, it's a Christian baker asked to cater a gay wedding.The first does not apply to the private sector.Facebook announced Thursday that it has permanently banned a host of prominent figures it described as "dangerous" from its platform, including right-wing commentator and former Breitbart News editor Milo Yiannopoulos, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
The platform said it has determined that those figures are "dangerous," and removed them under their policy barring individuals and groups that promote hateful and violent messages.
The tech giant, which has been engaged in an escalating crackdown on hate speech and fear-mongering on its platforms, also removed neo-Nazi Paul Nehlen, who previously ran for the House in Wisconsin, far-right activist Laura Loomer and conservative YouTuber Paul Joseph Watson.
Facebook bans Milo Yiannopoulos, Alex Jones, other 'dangerous' figures
2019 will go down as the year where it tuned on Fox News, AM talk radio, and the fringe of social media.
It will go down as the year the Left it would be fashionable to decide that the Free Speech of American's should be curtailed.
The First Amendment doesn't apply to Facebook. You fucking wingers are dumb as dirt.
LOL, what a dumbass. So you support blocking all speech you don't like. The 1st amendment applies to all speech son, just because you want to hide behind a platform that is privately owned doesn't change the fact that someone's rights aren't being respected.
